hi

I am expecting my first baby in November 2009 and starting to think about the options available - nursery for 7/8 month yr old or a shared childcare in the East Dulwich/Peckham Rye area. i would not be needed to start the childcare until June/July next year but I was wondering if anyone has taken part in a childcare share, and if there is anyone they would recommend in the area or maybe someone interested in taking part in a childcare share in June/July next year - seems quite a long way off but thought i should start thinking about it now!

Hi Hayley

I would be interested in at least a conversation about this. We are expecting our 1st baby as well at the end of October. I am going to take a year off so will not be going back to work until the following October but it may still be possible to work something out. I have just started to look into the cost and availabilty of childcare for when I do go back to work and it seems both difficult to arrange and very expensive for variable quality. Quite of few of the threads on nurseries in Dulwich mention that you need to put your babies names down at birth which is a bit scary. PM if you'd like to talk more or meet up at some stage in the future.

Hiya, We are expecting our first baby in January, I too have started to look into childcare and found the whole subject a minefiled not to mention being scared at how early you need to put names down despite not necessarily knowing when you will go back to work or whether it will be full or part time etc! Also choosing a nursery / childminder seems a nightmare!


I would imagine I would still be off in June / July next year (I hope) but would definitely be interested in any child care sharing ideas etc

Hi Hayley


I'm expecting my first baby in November too! I too am thinking of going back to work in June/July I am based near the Villa Nursery in Camberwell - they take kids after two but told me they can't take names til the baby is born! I am thinking of a childminder before then and would be interested in talking more. All the best.

    • That's a disgusting slur against an innocent driver who was probably just on their way to drop off freshly-baked muffins at an orphanage when they had to swerve out of the way of a so-called "cyclist", and anyway traffic lights are just a Marxist conspiracy by Southwark Council to slow traffic down and force people out of cars, so we're all better off without it.
    • Frothy coffee? Not really my bag. A double espresso and a Marlboro Red? It's the breakfast of champions. The only dark drink with a creamy head which should ever be drunk by a man of my age is Guinness. I've also become lactose intolerant recently, meaning I get very impatient around milk. You make a fair point, but those legal channels are available for them to recover their repair, and legal, costs and, as I said: "It's up to them if they [Southwark] want to do that, of course." There's three or four grands worth of Cat N write-off, wrapped round a post there (more, if it's broken down for parts) causing problems. If they can't be arsed sorting that, I'm not holding my breath. Even Southwark couldn't screw their numbers up enough to make shifting the post back through circa 15 degrees more than a couple of grand, so there's a drink in it for everyone. It's a bit 'leany' just now, yeah, but I haven't noticed anyone having to limbo under it to get to Superdrugs. Or, they could make a feature of it. Pisa has made a fortune out of not sorting the underpinnings of their tower. Let's say it's an installation by someone called, I don't know, Bangsy, and it's a physical reminder that SE22 cannot deny its proximity to Peckham, Camberwell & Brixton. It's about the only thing that would get me back into The Bishop since the many dark afternoons of the soul I spent with Clarence*, the world's most depressed Weimaraner. *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.   Come on Spartacus, don't be shy. You know exactly where the Green Cross Code Man was in 1973: less than a hundred yards away, on North Cross Road. https://youtu.be/C-XwVVMiCO4?si=rt8kQllev0t1Lgdi For some years, I found it quite difficult to go into The Forrester's after many long afternoons of the soul with Dave Prowse* (The Green Cross Code Man). *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.  
    • Loving the arm chair speculation on here  Blimey how long before this gets spun out to be a drug dealer welding a sawn off whilst driving away from a smash and grab at the coop cash machine flipped his car and landed on a bollard type post  Where's the green cross code man when you need him ?
